Systemic siRNA delivery to leukocyte-implicated diseases.
    Cell cycle (Georgetown, Tex.), 2009, Mar-15, Volume: 8, Issue:6

    Short interfering RNA (siRNA), a small duplex of RNA fragment, has proved as an extremely useful research tool to interrogate gene functions in test tubes. However, the transformation of siRNAs from a functional genomic tool into a new therapeutic modality has been hindered by ineffective delivery methods for systemic administration. In this review, we will discuss the recent advances in formulating new delivery strategies that target siRNAs to specific cells following systemic administration. Special emphasis will be given to leukocytes, since siRNA delivery remains exceptionally challenging here due to the unavailability of effective delivery technologies. We will not only detail new platforms that utilize leukocyte integrins as receptor targets for siRNAs delivery, but also show how one of these strategies has been utilized for in vivo drug target validation of a novel anti-inflammatory target, cyclin D1, for inflammatory bowel diseases.

WNT-pathway components as predictive markers useful for diagnosis, prevention and therapy in inflammatory bowel disease and sporadic colorectal cancer.
    Oncotarget, 2014, Feb-28, Volume: 5, Issue:4

    The key role of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling in colorectal cancer (CRC) insurgence and progression is now recognized and several therapeutic strategies targeting this pathway are currently in developing. Wnt/β-catenin signaling not only dominates the early stages of sporadic colorectal cancer (SCC), but could also represent the connection between inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and increased risk of developing SCC. The knowledge on the sequential molecular events of Wnt-signaling cascade in IBD and during colorectal carcinogenesis, might provide new diagnostic/prognostic markers and could be helpful for optimizing the treatment protocols, thus improving the efficacy of Wnt-targeting therapies. We performed a comparative evaluation of the expression of some crucial molecules participating to Wnt signaling in an animal model of chemically-induced CRC and in human tissues obtained from patients suffering from IBD or at sequential stages of SCC. Specifically, we analyzed upstream events of Wnt signaling including β-catenin nuclear translocation and loss of E-cadherin and APC functions, and downstream events including c-Myc and Cyclin-D1 expression. We demonstrated that these crucial components of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, when evaluated by immunohistochemistry using a multiparametric approach that includes the analyses of both expression and localization, could be potent markers for diagnosis, prevention and therapy in IBD and SCC, also possessing a predictive value for responsiveness to Wnt-targeting therapies. Furthermore, we showed that the animal model of chemically-induced CRC mimics the molecular events of Wnt signaling during IBD and SCC development in humans and may therefore be suitable for testing chemopreventive or therapeutic drugs targeting this pathway.

WNT-pathway activation in IBD-associated colorectal carcinogenesis: potential biomarkers for colonic surveillance.
    Cellular oncology : the official journal of the International Society for Cellular Oncology, 2010, Jan-01, Volume: 32, Issue:4

    The Wnt-pathway dominates the sporadic carcinogenesis whereas p53 plays a pivotal role in the colitis-associated counterpart. The expression of Wnt-signaling proteins and p53 during colitis-associated carcinogenesis was determined.. A tissue microarray was constructed with colonic samples from 5 groups of patients: controls (C, n=10), IBD without neoplasia (IBD, n=12), non-dysplastic IBD with neoplasia elsewhere in the colon (IBD-NE, n=12), dysplastic lesion in IBD (IBD-DYS, n=12), and IBD-associated colorectal cancer (IBD-CRC, n=10). Immunohistochemistry was performed for beta-catenin, cyclin D1 and p53. p53 sequence analysis was performed in some cases.. Nuclear beta-catenin expression was found in 0%, 0%, 50%, 55% and 100% of the patients in the C-, IBD-, IBD-NE-, IBD-DYS- and IBD-CRC-groups, respectively. Non-dysplastic IBD mucosa with neoplasia detected elsewhere showed nuclear expression in 50% of the cases compared to 0% in IBD mucosa without neoplasia (p=0.02). Cyclin D1 staining had similar expression patterns. Overexpression of p53 was only detected in the IBD-DYS (66.7%) and IBD-CRC groups (50%).. In contrast to previous findings, our results suggest activation of the Wnt-pathway in the early phase of colitis-associated carcinogenesis. Furthermore, as Wnt activation was observed in 50% of the IBD-NE cases, nuclear beta-catenin may facilitate detection of neoplasia.

Critical role of the disintegrin metalloprotease ADAM17 for intestinal inflammation and regeneration in mice.
    The Journal of experimental medicine, 2010, Aug-02, Volume: 207, Issue:8

    The protease a disintegrin and metalloprotease (ADAM) 17 cleaves tumor necrosis factor (TNF), L-selectin, and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R) ligands from the plasma membrane. ADAM17 is expressed in most tissues and is up-regulated during inflammation and cancer. ADAM17-deficient mice are not viable. Conditional ADAM17 knockout models demonstrated proinflammatory activities of ADAM17 in septic shock via shedding of TNF. We used a novel gene targeting strategy to generate mice with dramatically reduced ADAM17 levels in all tissues. The resulting mice called ADAM17(ex/ex) were viable, showed compromised shedding of ADAM17 substrates from the cell surface, and developed eye, heart, and skin defects as a consequence of impaired EGF-R signaling caused by failure of shedding of EGF-R ligands. Unexpectedly, although the intestine of unchallenged homozygous ADAM17(ex/ex) mice was normal, ADAM17(ex/ex) mice showed substantially increased susceptibility to inflammation in dextran sulfate sodium colitis. This was a result of impaired shedding of EGF-R ligands resulting in failure to phosphorylate STAT3 via the EGF-R and, consequently, in defective regeneration of epithelial cells and breakdown of the intestinal barrier. Besides regulating the systemic availability of the proinflammatory cytokine TNF, our results demonstrate that ADAM17 is needed for vital regenerative activities during the immune response. Thus, our mouse model will help investigate ADAM17 as a potential drug target.

Expression of p53, VEGF, microvessel density, and cyclin-D1 in noncancerous tissue of inflammatory bowel disease.
    Digestive diseases and sciences, 2009, Volume: 54, Issue:9

    We aimed to evaluate the carcinogenesis risk in inflammatory bowel disease via p53 mutation and its relation with hyperproliferation (cyclin-D1) and angiogenesis (with vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF] and microvessel density) and whether these events play important roles in pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease. Colonic tissue samples of 26 ulcerative colitis, 6 Crohn's disease, and 8 amoebic colitis patients as well as samples of 10 healthy controls were stained with p53, cyclin-D1, CD34, and VEGF monoclonal antibodies by immunohistochemistry and evaluated semiquantitatively. Expression of p53 was higher in ulcerative colitis than in the healthy control and amoebic colitis groups (4.15 +/- 2.07, 1.4 +/- 1.5, 1.3 +/- 1.5; P < 0.001). The Crohn's disease group had the highest p53 expression (4.6 +/- 1.6). The Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and amoebic colitis groups all had higher VEGF expression than did the healthy controls (respectively, 4.3 +/- 1.2, 2.92 +/- 2.0, 2.3 +/- 1.5, 0.6 +/- 0.97; P < 0.001). Also, microvessel density was statistically higher in all three colitis groups than in healthy controls. Cyclin-D1 expression in all four groups was similar. The study showed that p53 mutation was present in nonneoplastic mucosa of inflammatory bowel disease patients. Detecting strong p53 overexpression with VEGF overexpression may help in differentiating inflammatory bowel disease from other colitis.

Comparative analysis of cell adhesion molecules, cell cycle regulatory proteins, mismatch repair genes, cyclooxygenase-2, and DPC4 in carcinomas arising in inflammatory bowel disease and sporadic colon cancer.
    Oncology reports, 2004, Volume: 11, Issue:5

    Colon carcinoma arising in inflammatory bowel disease often exhibits aggressive behavior compared to sporadic carcinomas. The rationale for the different biological behaviors of these two groups of tumors is not fully understood. In this study, we have examined carcinomas arising in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and sporadic carcinomas (SCA) for molecular differences that may provide clues for the behavioral disparity of these tumors. Thirty-eight colon carcinomas (12 from ulcerative colitis, 5 from Crohn's disease, and 21 SCA) were analyzed by immunohistochemistry for cell adhesion molecules (E-cadherin, beta-catenin, CD44), cell cycle regulatory proteins (cyclin D1, p27, p21), mismatch repair proteins (hMLH1, hMSH2), cyclooxygenase-2 and DPC4. Carcinomas arising in IBD showed significant decrease in expression of cell adhesion molecules, the cell cycle inhibitor protein, p21, and increased expression of cyclooxygenase-2 compared to sporadic carcinomas. No differences were observed in the expression of cell cycle regulatory proteins p27, cyclin D1, DPC4 and mismatch repair proteins between these two groups of tumors. Decreased expression of p21 as well as adhesion molecules may provide increased impetus for the aggressive behavior of tumors arising in inflammatory bowel disease.
